You wouldn't go wrong if you bought all your stuff there.
:scratchhead:Great guy to deal with. When I saw another authorized McDermott Dealer selling the same cue for a lower price, I emailed Joe and he matched the same price and still included the case and other extras!
:scratchhead:
So you think it must be true that...only authorized McDermott and Predator dealers are the only sellers who can sell these cues with a warranty?
This is not true. Joe gets you sucked right in on that statement in his listings....![]()

rI think you might be mistaken here.
Both McDermott and Predator, as well as pretty much all the manufacturers that I know of, only warranty products sold retail through there recognized dealers.
Here's a quote from the McDermott warranty page:
"McDermott's Lifetime Warranty applies only to the original purchaser/owner of the cue and must be purchased from an authorized McDermott dealer. "
:smile:
I'm glad you brought that up and this is where all the confusion is and why people shouldn't believe everything they read.
There are dealers all across America who sell for Mueller, Aurora, Q-Stix Internamtional, J&J America, and others...all who are not authorized dealers for Joss, Meucci, Predator, McDermott, and even OB Cues.
I've brought this up with Predator, McDermott, J&J and Joe Nielson of course many years ago. All said the cues that come from these private dealers are all covered under all warranties. They were actually confused at first too and after I told them, they all said my cues are covered under all warranties.
So when I order $5000 dollars worth of new cues, then resell them, the warranty is still good. It makes it real tough to compete with the big box stores this way because of the wording about warranties and the huge discounts.
This is just one of the problems with the local little mom & pop stores selling cues. We are getting to be a rare bread.
So since I am not recognized by you, are you saying all the brand new OB Cues and shafts I sell are not under warranty?:shocked:
Yes, but I believe it may be a different user name. Like so many here, I've delt with him on numerous occasions and have never once been disappointed. He usually has the best price, not always, but usually. Given his knowledge, expertise, level of service, post purchase support & awesome packing & shipping, I go with him regardless of whether or not his price is the best. -SIs joerackem a member here as well?
